This post put a smile on my face, I would hate to receive any of the above presents. I have received a garish present and it's awful to have to plant a fake smile of pleasure on my face, pretending to be pleased and hoping they can't tell how much I hate it!!! lol.....I've also caught up on the last couple of posts and I just have to say.....I think your list of do's and don'ts for the decorating are spot on. I was in the shops the other day and couldn't help but think the decorations are average this year, nothing seems to blow me away this year. (Probably a good thing, as there is a issue of storage for 10-11 months of the year). Anyway, enough from me....hope you have a good start to your weekend.<br />Take care<br />Janine<br />XXOO<br />Tasmania, AustraliaJanine Marshallnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8087985679708902082.post-4355197486642710492010-12-03T17:44:23.184-05:002010-12-03T17:44:23.184-05:00Useful, beautiful or desired are my criteria!

I have to admit to having a purse butler, but in my defence I use it to hang my crash helmet on when we've been a ride out and stop for refreshments :o) (It's not strong enough to hang my purse on!)

My friends and I have an annual "ugly sweater party" though and it's always great fun to see what we can dig up at Goodwill (where I'm sure most of those things end up eventually anyway!).<br /><br />PS - I gotta admit, I kinda like the oil/vinegar dachshunds.

I have some very dear family members who have purchased these types of 'gifts' since I can remember...for us and them, and they always end up, unused, in a drawer or box somewhere, never to be seen again (by us...they actually use there's, kind of).<br />And let me tell you, Miss. Ginger my little Dachshund friend, was a little offended by the oil & vinegar pourers, and I can't say that I blame her!<br />xo J~24 Cornershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13630767883910250689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8087985679708902082.post-91712428049187652652010-12-03T11:05:56.856-05:002010-12-03T11:05:56.856-05:00Ok, I think you just about covered it here!

My mother in law needs to read this, she is guilty of purchasing the most ridiculous money wasting items, she thinks they are so clever and fun, and even my kids usually roll their eyes! And, I have received that purse hook thing, and of course never ever used it...or even know where it is!
